...una bestia de metal y aire...
La Jornada Michoacán, 2004

Terrazas is able to scavenge and find beauty in what is left.
Max Go, 2007

Un sonido asimétrico, que rechina, que vocifera hasta el límite, que es libre de principio a fin. Y lo mejor de ese sonido es que te exige, al escucharlo, que tú también lo seas, que tú también rompas el molde, salgas de lo convencional.
Gabriel Trujillo, 2011

That Wilfrido is -pardon me- a mother fucker.
Roscoe Mitchell, 2011

You turned the flute into an extreme sport.
Theodora, a 17-year-old flute student from Kefalonia, Greece, 2012


Sensei del viento.
Georgina Derbez, 2012

Un portento musical con barbas.
Jaime Cháidez Bonilla, 2015


You're like my third soulmate on this planet.
Anne La Berge, 2016

​I'd say Wilfrido Terrazas is a Mexican revolutionary.
Andrew Drury, 2016

Every time you walk into a room you change people's lives.
Claire Chase, 2017

...spot-on rendering of the desert wind...
​Steven Schick, 2018

Wilfrido Terrazas just shattered me. So unbelievably moving.
Nicholas Deyoe, 2018


Professor Terrazas' compositions are innovative. To be honest, when I first started listening, they sounded a bit bizarre. However, as I listened more, the improvisations with flute gave me the feeling of being integrated into ever-changing nature.
Chu Li, a student in my Mexican folk music class at UCSD, 2020

Wilfrido Terrazas continues to push the envelope for state-of-the-art contemporary flute performance.
Paul Muller, Sequenza 21, 2021
